Load handling
1
To avoid damaging the hook, lifting devices
must only be positioned on the load bearing
surface of the hook. That is, the lowest point
of the hook.
2
Ensure that the hook safety latches are
closed. Check that the safety latch is not
subjected to any force by the load.
3
The weight of the load must be centered on
the center line of the hook forging so that the
load does not bend the neck of the hook.
Never try to lift anything with the tip of the
hook!
4
Check that the load is balanced and safely
fastened at the lifting points. The load must
not be able to slide, slip or detach itself when
suspended.
